SUMMARY:Vegetal & Synthetic Dye Class
DESCRIPTION:Instructors: Mimi Luebbermann & Marlie deSwart \nAttention all felters\, spinners\, or knitters! This is a hands-on class that will open your world to the exciting skill of dyeing wool with vegetal or synthetic dyes.

Through hands-on exploration and the guidance of Marlie\, you will learn how to space\, vat\, steam\, and hand paint roving or yarns. Whether using roving\, hand spun yarns\, or purchased yarns\, these dyes open a dazzling world of opportunities to explore for all creative fiber projects. \nBring something to share for a potluck lunch. \n$150 (materials included)
